Calling Mobile Phone in Ireland from Hong Kong using Skype Credit..

[jamie565]

Hi, I am going to Hong |Kong next week and I| was wondering can I use my skype credit to call a mobile in Ireland using my Skype account from Hong Kong. 

Does it charge and work the same as it does here in Ireland when I just dial the number and it calls? 

There is no roaming charges involved is there? 

I am on Skype to go price plan.

Thanks!!

At the moment HK is not one of the countries you can set as your nearest location for Skype To Go calls.
Supported countries can be found from this site: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/features/allfeatures/skype-to-go-number/

If you call your Ireland Skype To Go number from your cell phone in HK then your mobile service provider would charge you for international call and probably also for roaming.

Maybe you have or can borrow a mobile device that supports Skype, like iPhone or some Android device where you can install Skype and use over WiFi in HK. That would be a good option.
